Aerial hero shotSome properties simply cannot be sold from the ground. Large plots, distinctive settings and development sites all benefit from aerial imagery that shows position and context at a glance. Photoplan provides licensed drone photography across Manchester — CAA-certified pilots, full insurance and airspace planning handled for you. Aerial photos work especially well for city-centre apartments, mill conversions, Victorian terraces and south Manchester family homes, and we fly across the city centre and all ten Greater Manchester boroughs. Manchester Airport’s zone affects the southern fringe, and city-centre flights need congested-area competence — both handled by our licensed pilots. Aerial photography is a strong differentiator for Manchester developments, roof terraces and larger suburban plots.
